Along with Ubisoft, EA is Nintendo’s biggest partner for Wii U. John Riccitiello teased some of the possible games we can see on the console and the company as a whole has been supportive thus far.
Now EA Sports vice president Andrew Wilson has commented on the console, such as how it stacks up to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. While they do have a better idea of what the system can do, EA still isn’t sure if Wii U can go beyond what other consoles currently offer.
Head past the break from Wilson’s full set of responses.
Mega Man Legends 3 programming director Yoshiyuki Fujikawa is aware of fan movements to revive the project. He told his followers on Twitter that he’s interested in seeing how the situation goes and that he will offer a feeling of support even though he can’t wish petitioners luck.
Fujikawa believes that the message could get through with the right amount of feedback from fans. This doesn’t mean that Mega Man Legends 3 will resume development, but at least some of the game’s staff are taking notice of recent happenings that the fans have been involved with.
